A Starbucks Worker Showed How Much Product Gets Wasted Every Night
by Matthew Gilligan
It’s a darn shame…
I’m talking about how much food restaurants and other businesses throw out at the end of a typical work day.
And a Starbucks employee whose store is in a Target shared a video on TikTok that went viral because he showed that they throw out a ton of food that looks just fine.

The man’s video showed cartloads of food that is still in wrappers and his text overlay says, “POV: You’re closing at Starbucks.”

He also wrote text on the video that said, “ALL TRASH” and “Final damage.”
As you can see, that’s a ton of food going to waste for no good reason.

Another person said this should be illegal.

And this TikTokker had a good idea about what to do with all this food.
